Abstract

The transfer of simple alkyl groups in Stille reactions usually requires special solvents (HMPA) or certain organotin reagents (stannatranes, monoorganotin halides) to be efficient. Using low-melting mixtures of sugar, urea and inorganic salt as solvent, a fast and efficient palladiumcatalyzed alkyl transfer with tetraalkyltin reagents was observed. The high polarity and nucleophilic character of the solvent melt promotes the reaction. Stille biaryl synthesis using electron-poor and electron-rich aryl bromides proceeds with quantitative yields in the sugar-urea-salt melt. Catalyst loading may be reduced to 0.001 mol % and the catalyst melt mixture remains active in several reaction cycles. Showing the same or improved performance for Stille reactions than organic solvents and allowing a very simple work up, sugar-urea-salt melts are a non-toxic and cheap alternative reaction medium available in bulk quantities for the catalytic process.
